They sing about horses through the windy steppe

Many years ago vocals would be the least of my concern. If a singer did a Captain Beefheart, had a two dark or too falsetto voice wouldn't bother me. The instumentation was everything and learning to sing well was not on my agenda. But then I came across the singing known as Xhoomei, or Throat singing as we know it by.

God I love tuvan throat singing. It definitely should be listened to out in nature. Last summer I would go out to the park by my apartment building, put on some Huun-Huur-Tu and imagine I was on the steppe.

Do you have Melodii Tuvi? I was thinking of posting that album tomorrow.

[cap_scaleman]

Yes, I happen to have that one. What is missing in my collection is some additional Yat-kha, Alash, Huun-Huur-Tu and a couple of other groups too.
